If you are experiencing stress and challenges in your life, dealing with trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, or depression, you don’t need to go through it alone. I am committed to supporting you in your journey toward healing and personal growth. I take a collaborative approach to therapy, creating a warm, non-judgmental space where we can work together to explore issues and create meaningful changes in your life by gaining insight and developing new coping strategies.
With over 15 years of experience working in the community, I am a compassionate, bilingual therapist, specialize in trauma, depression, anxiety, OCD, ADHD, and relationship issues.
I integrate evidence-based therapies tailored to each client's unique needs, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, IFS, and attachment based. I am certified in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), which allows me to provide specialized care for trauma and PTSD.
